Threads like this happen when someone isn't fed "itk" stuff anymore. RIP Gasincider. Ha, ha, was just thinking the same whilst reading this thread.

My sons card come through all ok in advance of my season ticket turning up as had to wait for that as paid on finance. To be honest, still not 100% sure how it works, do I have to get a free ticket from the ticket office each match, or just flash the card when he's going in with me? You have to pre book tickets and either have them posted or collect them from the portacabin by the Mem gates on the day. Ahh right, best crack on and give them a call to get some tickets ready for the season!!

Didn't a Newcastle Chairman years ago try doing the same, and threw loads of money at the rugby club and other sports, only for it to all go pear shaped??

Great news. I must admit as the start of it all, I had no doubt that he would stay, but as time went by, I did start to think otherwise, but all's well that ends well. Now we just need some players to sign on for next season!

Strange why three of the players on Subs bench said they were surprised by a lack of a bus tour as they enjoyed the last one. And if DC was so knackered he recovered enough to be a pundit at Wembley for Grimsby's playoff game. Id have thought someone ITK like yourself would be able to find out easily enough. I think that's half the problem with some people on here. They're no longer 'ITK' as all their buddies have gone, so they can no longer walk round with a smug grin on their faces, or post cryptic messages in the hope that others hang on their every word, and it's put their noises out of joint.
Instead, they're just looking for any excuse (no matter how pathetic), to try and knock the new board.
Just like the SC, who despite all the great work they have done, everyone needs to move with the times and go forward as one. If that means a lot of changes with how the SC is run, then so be it. To be honest, a visit to 199 to buy anything, even with the refit is a chore due to the attitude of the some of the people helping out, in that some times you're made to feel you're being a pain in the arse actually coming into the shop and buying something!
It's 2016, we've 'hopefully' got new owners who mean business, and if so, the club needs to be seen as a professional outfit from every angle, and not run like a charity shop.

Latest on Twitter is that we've now offered DC a fancy new 3yr contract.
Club apparently making a statement later on today.

Sorry fanboy. My grandson stayed off the pitch as was requested by the club. So he missed out on that. He is too young to celebrate on the Gloucester Riad like our older fans. So I said, don't worry, there will be a tour just like last years at which he enjoyed himself, and cost me plenty in terms of food, drink and various items that kids love in the shop etc. This is yet another missed opportunity by the club. My family come from Swansea, and know all about Hamer. The same issues about him arose there. The fans reps we're glad when he went, as he comes from the school of thinking ' what do the little people know about running a club'. Now it's happening again. Mark my words, the fans directors will be ostracised completely, the young pirates set up is still waiting for him to say hello, Just hope Wael is reachable as I don't believe for one minute he would Go along with this thinking. Presumably, the 3-4000 that turned up at the Mem last time shouldn't have bothered. Wonder how much we made from that. As for the staff issue, that's plainly crass. It's one day in the next three months, and if we were going to Wembley, they would have had to work on ( hopefully) selling three lots of tickets. That would have entailed more than one day's work. Our owners have already stated that we need to utilise the stadium more than we do now. This golden opportunity has been allowed to go the way of so many others. We have a winner, the first board basher of the new regime.

I think it's the right decision. Nothing will beat Saturday, and the celebrations when the Accy score came in, and even more so the scenes on Glos Rd and the surrounding pubs long into the night.
Disappointing for some I'm sure, but you're never going to please everyone.

I had a dream a couple of weeks back that Oxford were drawing and Danny Leads scored the winner for us in injury time to send us up.....think that proves I'm some sort of fortune teller, just not a very good one

Nick Day Says
There will be an official presentation platform built by Sky to celebrate promotion. This can only happen if the pitch is clear.
If we don't make it, players will leave the pitch. We focus on the play off games and need the best possible surface to play on so.....
guess what...please STAY OFF THE PITCH!
I will be given play off ticket information straight away which I can only read out if the pitch is clear so everyone can hear and have
....a fair chance of getting their tickets.
So, to recap, whatever happens:
a) Please stay off the pitch. b) If in any doubt as, please see a. Who wants a Sky Platform? ? Old school scenario of players being carried off the pitch on the shoulders of the fans is much better

I've promised my 10yr old lad that 'should' the promotion Gods shine on us come 4.45pm Saturday, he can take part in his first pitch invasion and steam on and celebrate!!

Cant say I agree with this fellas in my time watching the Gas I have never seen three sides singing the same song, so it aint gonna just happen unless someone or something makes it happen. Any other ideas? Did you ever go to Twerton?
The terrace in front of the main stand would join in with the open end and Popular Side in a rendition of Gerry Francis Blue & White Army!!! Happy Days!!!
The noise at times generated by ALL sides of the ground at Twerton was immense. It's up to the fans to generate this at the Mem, and no amount of flag waving, dancing around by Nick Day (!!!) will help.

Is it not a valid complaint ? How many people have made special journeys this week to pay and/or had to plan their finances based on a date set by the club, if they are not going to stick to the date they say what is the point of having a deadline ? Realise the new board can do no wrong at the moment ..... No. What about those for whatever reason couldn't get one before 22nd, now they may be able to?

Not sure how the figures add up - Supporters club figures totaled 2990 the other day for Terrace tickets - as the total is now 3100 ish I assume those figures included the stands as well ? Also to be honest if they give a date they should stick to it ..... Christ, no pleasing some people!!
